Default Looking for pics

I am looking for pictures of LS1 TA's with fender exit exhaust. We are planning on running the exhaust out of the fender (or maybe the bumper), but the vents are throwing me off. I cant really picture where it will look good, or if it will at all. Since we dont have the car to look at I figued I could get some pics with different locations to get some ideas. Lets see what you got.


Thanks,
Sean

Member BlwnTA has exhaust that exits the side...and his car is awesome! However, his car doesn't have the Trans Am ground effects on it since it was originally a V6 car.

Thanks for the pic, I forgot about that car. What size pipe is that, does anyone know? I think with the ground effects it will look better slash cut above the vent. Keep the pics comming though

Since the side vents are basically for looks, I would have a custom stainless piece made that uses the lower port as the exit point. It would look stock, but not.....
